Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A scaffolding bracket anchors a first vertical scaffolding pole of a scaffolding to a building façade. The bracket has at one end a clamp in order to grip the first scaffolding pole. The clamp can be locked in its closed position. A spring element urges the clamp into the closed position of the clamp with a spring force. In order to actuate the clamp, the bracket can have a first sleeve with a slotted guide by means of which the first sleeve can be transferred from the closed position into the open position of the bracket. The slotted guide may be designed in such a way that the bracket can be locked in the closed position. Furthermore, the clamp can have at least one projection for engaging in the first scaffolding pole in order to allow a particularly secure fastening of the bracket to the first scaffolding pole.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A bracket for fastening a scaffolding to a building façade, wherein the bracket has in a longitudinal direction at one end a connection arrangement for fastening the bracket to the building façade, and wherein the bracket has at the other end a clamp with a first gripping jaw and a second gripping jaw for fastening the bracket to a vertical first scaffolding pole of the scaffolding. 2 . The bracket as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first gripping jaw has a first projection which, in a closed position of the clamp, can be inserted into a first scaffolding pole aperture in the vertical first scaffolding pole of the scaffolding, and wherein the second gripping jaw has in a second projection which, in the closed position of the clamp, can be inserted into a second scaffolding pole aperture in the vertical first scaffolding pole. 3 . The bracket as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the second projection is formed in mirror-image fashion to the first projection about a center longitudinal plane of the bracket. 4 . The bracket as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the bracket has a spring element against whose spring force the clamp can be opened. 5 . The bracket as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the bracket has a first sleeve which can be pushed partially over the first and second gripping jaws in order to close the clamp. 6 . The bracket as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the first sleeve can be displaced against the spring force of the spring element in order to open the clamp. 7 . The bracket as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the clamp can be locked in its closed position. 8 . The bracket as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the first sleeve has an at least L-shaped aperture in which a guide projection of the bracket is guided, wherein the bracket is designed in such a way that the clamp can be opened and closed if the guide projection is situated in a first rectilinear portion of the at least L-shaped aperture and is locked if the guide projection is situated in a second rectilinear portion of the at least L-shaped aperture, wherein the second rectilinear portion branches off from the first rectilinear portion. 9 . The bracket as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the at least L-shaped aperture is T-shaped, wherein the clamp can be opened and closed if the guide projection is situated in the lower portion of the T shape and is locked in an upper lateral portions of the T shape. 10 . The bracket as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the bracket is of telescopic design. 11 . The bracket as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the length of the bracket can be set by means of a screw connection of the bracket. 12 . The bracket as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the bracket has a second sleeve with a plurality of engagement through-apertures into which a bolt of the bracket can be inserted, wherein the bolt is guided in a rod or a tube of the bracket in order to set the length of the bracket in correspondence with the unit spacing of the engagement through-apertures. 13 . A scaffolding comprising the bracket as claimed in claim 2 and including the first scaffolding pole which is vertical in the mounted state and which is connected to the clamp. 14 . The scaffolding as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the first scaffolding pole has the first scaffolding pole aperture into which the first projection of the bracket is inserted, wherein the first scaffolding pole has the second scaffolding pole aperture which is opposite to the first scaffolding pole aperture and into which the second projection of the bracket is inserted. 15 . The scaffolding as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the scaffolding has a second scaffolding pole which is vertical in the mounted state, wherein the second scaffolding pole is partially connected to the first scaffolding pole, wherein the second scaffolding pole has a third scaffolding pole aperture which is aligned with the first scaffolding pole aperture, and the second scaffolding pole has a fourth scaffolding pole aperture which is aligned with the second scaffolding pole aperture, and wherein the first projection engages through the third scaffolding pole aperture and the second projection engages through the fourth scaffolding pole aperture.
